aLRIGht that’s it I’m starting a JoJo thread…
jojo is too raw

Good stuff, one of my favorite fights in the show. I loved the newer movie that redid the souther arc, but that first fight between them looked better on the original anime.
Ahhh saying that was cheesy would be the understatement of the century 
What do you mean “raw”?

To be honest all this stuff should technically be in that Anime 2.0 thread.
Even though hnk definitely deserves its own topic, but you know, with the board rules and all. Might get merged.
Jojo may be great, but does Jojo have THIS?

I’ve heard about that, but isn’t it japanese-only game dialog/instructions?
That would suck not knowing what the hell to do, or how to play.
^True, I’ve heard some good things about it, except for the graphics as is usually par for the course. Haven’t heard anything on gameplay mechanics or how it’s played, as the closed beta’s tight as hell(only 3000 players in at a time, and the nda too), won’t know any info about the actual game itself till sometime later this year probably, no word on if it’d become a stateside game either with it being pay2play.
I’m not the online gaming type and never once played an online MMO before. If that got a U.S release i’d probably check it out.
Graphics look ok, like late-PSX’ish. At least it would guarantee most basic computers out there could run it :wonder:
ever read the books or watch the old series? very violent, bloody and no punches were pulled (say a character that is dying isnt auto-revived for plot convienience)
yea that guy is amazing
From what i’ve seen of the anime, i guess so.
Like the way Avdol died rather senselessly. Don’t want to spoil anything for others, but yeah seeing that was kinda surprising.
Edit: Oh man, Iggy bit it pretty hard too 
More screenies from the beta.

looks like they’re going for a mangaish look with the main characters npc models. Sort of like Narutimate Hero games in style is the closest reference.
avdol was pretty much a thread to jojo’s crew, basically its dio putting them in check.
if you read the manga dio’s done way worse shit.
iggy died saving polnareff its saddening because iggy finally overcame his cowardice to save a friend and he got merc’d
what bothered me about HnK even though it was syndicated was that there was waaaaaay too much fodder. a shit load of episodes was just ken finding a bad guy…kills like 30-40 people and then kills the generic badguy. rise wash repeat, i had to skip a shit load of episodes just to progress the plot
anymore jojo lovers?:sad:
Hey that stuff was awesome! Seeing Ken kill thugs by the truckload is a centerpiece of the show :lovin:
Like that time Kenshiro got so pissed at this one guy, he punched a chickenbone through the back of his head.
Edit: Also that one time Raoh traveled without his army, and this gang of wasteland thugs thought they could ambush him. Ha! Those guys got messed up.
Just started JoJo a few mins ago after reading this thread, looking pretty cool so far, like the old fashioned look of the series, though I’m curious on what connection if any there is with the Dio in the present and the Aztec Dio of the past besides the facial ornament :P.
Initially I thought HnK main characters were stronger than a few of the JJBA characters,but later on I had to rethink that.
HnK Characters>JJBA Ripple characters IMO
JJBA Star Platinum and The World>HnK
I would love to see what Kenshiro would do if Dio stopped time
Are you serious? JoJo is GOD. Both HnK and JoJo are some of the best shit to ever be created.
I still need to finish Part 5 (JoJo), myself.
